You are not abandoned. As you can see, you benefit at the right time from the attention of those you hold dear.

What about our attention towards you! These reactions are human: they are due to your isolation and your health problems. Do not lose confidence. Who has never experienced these states of melancholy in which everything seems pointless in this world?

Think of your Master. Although he is greatly cared for, he is not spared either. Who really understands him? Abhyasis expect more and more of him without really being aware of his personal difficulties.

A living Master is not a puppet. His annoyances and suffering are real and are not, as some abhyasis may believe, a figment of the imagination. A Master is alone, and his mission in this world is important. May all our brothers and sisters understand this and not ask the impossible of him.

May peace be in your heart on this day when we bless you in a special way, as well as the beings whom you care about.

Babuji
